How it Works?
Atorzux Gold 10 Capsule consists of three active components:
• Atorvastatin (10 mg): Inhibits the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, reducing cholesterol synthesis in the liver. This action decreases low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglycerides while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels.
• Aspirin (75 mg): Acts as an antiplatelet agent by irreversibly inhibiting cyclooxygenase, thus preventing thromboxane A2 formation, which reduces platelet aggregation and the risk of clot formation.
• Clopidogrel (75 mg): Functions as an antiplatelet agent, inhibiting the P2Y12 adenosine diphosphate receptor on platelets, thereby preventing platelet activation and aggregation.
